Default Giulietta is purring again :)

Apparently my problems to get her started was due to two problems:
- not enough power from the battery
- not enough fuel

Right now I need to pull the choke to get her started which I never
needed to do before. Think I found the problem though: the lever for
the acceleration pump on 1/2 is disconnected and dangling around.
That's why there's no extra fuel coming in when I push the pedal...

Mine is having a 3l 164 rad crammed into yet ATM, in an effort to stop her
